I'd love to run as a candidate who just collects money and uses it to throw absolutely amazing parties and run over-the-top parody campaign ads.

uncurable mlady posted:I also can't figure out why people who are in college are gung ho about free tuition. Does he want to make it retroactive? What about the people who are still dealing with tens of thousands of dollars in debt that graduated already? At least shilldawg has mentioned some things about continuing Obamas loan reforms. It's mostly young people going "Wow, this is some bullshit!" and wanting policy change. Other generations would be more gung ho too if they ever experienced tuitions that high.

MMM Whatchya Say posted:Why is Clinton (expected to be) so popular with minorities? Some more theories: 1) She's always polled well with minorities, for starters, and continues to do so. 2) Bill's really good at actually being normal around black people and his administration is associated with an economic boom period that greatly benefitted black people re: unemployment and income; the expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit helped too. 3) Hillary Clinton's seen as a sure thing and minorities are terrified of the possibility a Sanders candidacy will end up with an all-Republican controlled government because they know from experience they'll end up suffering most. The Tough on Crime and Welfare Reform bills that occurred during the Clinton administration are also only acknowledged as harming minority communities in retrospect, at the time a lot of minorities were in favor of those policies so they don't usually associate the Clintons with those policies' long-term side effects the way you might expect.

Pinterest Mom posted:14th amendment, fam. Before you say "but that's insane" that's the actual legal logic used by the Supreme Court to uphold the constitutionality of felony disenfranchisement in 1974, 6-3.

Mulva posted:How was that not 9-0? The dissenters objected based on: A) jurisdictional issues (it shouldn't be in front of the Supreme Court in the first place), and B) The Equal Protection Clause governing the right to vote. Justice Marshall posted:In my view, the disenfranchisement of ex-felons must be measured against the requirements of the Equal Protection Clause of 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment. That analysis properly begins with the observation that because the right to vote "is of the essence of a democratic society, and any restrictions on that right strike at the heart of representative government," Reynolds v. Sims, 377 U.S., at 555 , voting is a "fundamental" right. As we observed in Dunn v. Blumstein, supra, at 336:
